About this unit
AI-compiled · sourcedTalladega County rises through the Appalachian foothills of east-central Alabama, dominated by the vast Talladega National Forest and anchored by Cheaha Mountain, the state highest peak at 2,407 feet. Whitetail deer and Eastern wild turkey thrive in the mixed pine-hardwood forest covering rugged ridges and stream hollows throughout the county. Abundant national forest land makes this one of Alabama premier public-land hunting destinations.
Appalachian foothills with steep ridges and hollows; mixed pine-hardwood forest; Cheaha Mountain at 2407 feet; Talladega Creek and Hillabee Creek drainages
Moderate to high near popular NF access points and trailheads; backcountry ridges see significantly less pressure
Alabama OTC archery, muzzleloader, and gun tags; statewide antler restriction requires bucks to have 4+ points on one side or 15-inch spread
Eastern wild turkey populations strong in NF hardwood draws; occasional black bear sightings as the Georgia population expands westward
Talladega National Forest provides one of the largest public hunting footprints in east Alabama; Cheaha Mountain backcountry holds mature bucks with minimal hunting intrusion
